Take the simple complexity of Mondrian, fill it with the passion of Klimt, the psychology of Munch, then look at it all through stereo-blind Rembrandt eyes and convert it into words; that’s the best way I can think of to describe the darkly poetic writing of Martin Reaves. ~ Trent Zelazny, author of Too Late to Call Texas and Butterfly Potion. Reaves is a quality wordsmith and his attention to detail is evident in his works. He understands mood and setting better than most and can spit dialogue like he's emptying a machine gun's clip. His books do not disappoint. ~ Mark Leftridge, author of A Tangled Web We Weave, Safe Sects, and When the Hangman WeepsArt can bring life…but it can also kill.
